As per title - I'm wondering if anybody has a posh SUT that would suit an io they'd consider selling. I have a couple of units that sound pretty good but I'd like to try something like a Audio note or higher end Ortofon unit to see what they bring to the party.

I need about 30db of gain and 1 to 3 ohms would match the cart nicely.

Anything out there please?

I always tell people to try Locate an old Mayware 'T24' these uae a technique called Reflected Shunt EQ

Auto adapting Voltage ratio... No switching required..Will give you your 40db/2 Ohm

Mega quiet units...

Second that, I have one, it's the best sounding of the three units I have.
